Our trip was perfect and he was the first boat in the area to find a large pod of spotted dolphins. We found numerous sea turtles, and a pair of humpback whales too! Alex was knowledgeable about the area, the sea, and marine life etc. He was respectful of the wildlife while viewing too. He had great sense of humor and made the trip interesting and fun for everyone. I highly recommend Omar's for your sea adventures…”
Tour a family-run mezcal distillery near Puerto Escondido, taste six artisanal mezcals, and enjoy snacks with hotel transport included.
“Marianna and her colleague Tamara went above and beyond to ensure we had a perfect experience at the distillery. We had access to way more mescal than we could possibly consume, and they provided tasty complimentary snacks. The family participated in the tour of the distillery, answering our questions patiently and with lots ofdetail. Marianna sent a taxi to pick us up and drop us off. It is important to note the distillery does not have agave fields on site, which was a little disappointing but the rest of the experience was stellar!”
